iCALM 26
13-16 October 2026
FlaBI microscopy team is happy to announce the new edition of the advanced light microscopy course!
Over 4 days, the course will showcase microscopy technologies across Flanders BioImaging's life science facilities, combining theoretical classes and hands-on demos.
Program
Day 1 - October 13th, 2026
VIB BioImaging Core and CiC
KU Leuven
Gasthuisberg, Leuven, Belgium
Laser scanning and super-resolution microscopy
Basic theoretical background in confocal microscopy and diving into super-resolution
Day 2 - October 14th, 2026
ACAM Core
University of Antwerp
Campus Drie Eiken, Antwerp
Scalable imaging: light sheet imaging & smart microscopy
Light sheet imaging is used to visualize larger (mm up to cm) samples while maintaining (sub)cellular resolution. Smart microscopy is based on real-time adaptation of acquisition settings to optimise imaging throughput or trigger phenotype specific (photo)manipulation protocols.
Day 3 - October 15th, 2026
AOMC Core
University of Hasselt
Campus Diepenbeek, Hasselt
Dynamic BioImaging: Shine your light on mobility, interactions, and structure
Day 4 - October 16th, 2026
GLiM Core
Gent University
Gent
Quantitative Microscopy: FLIM, FRET, FCS
Practical Aspects:
-
The course is designed to accept 25 participants to optimize the hands-on sessions.
-
Participants are not obliged to subscribe to the whole course, but can also choose a few days.
-
The subscription price will soon be updated. It will include coffee breaks and lunches.
-
Participants need to organize their own transportation.
